Rational
and
Irrational Numbers
Learning Target:
Students can identify numbers as being
rational or irrational.
All REAL numbers are
made up of
RATIONAL & IRRATIONAL
numbers…
Real Number System
Rational Numbers
A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio.
That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the
numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the
number on the bottom) are whole numbers.
All rational numbers can
be written as a fraction.
Examples of Rational Numbers
Fractions
Terminating Decimals
(stop / end)
Repeating Decimals
(decimal goes on forever)
Whole Numbers
Perfect Squares
Rational Numbers
are “Nice & Neat!”

Irrational Numbers
All numbers that are not rational are considered irrational.
An irrational number can be written as a decimal, but not as
a fraction.
Irrational numbers can NOT
be written as a fraction!!
Examples of Irrational Numbers
Non-terminating and Non-repeating decimals
(go on and on and on but don’t repeat)
SURDS (Non- Perfect Squares)
65.65971059893… 0.363765489965…
73 ≈ 8.54400374531753116…
2 ≈ 1.414213562373095048…
𝜋 = 3.141592653589…
5 ≈ 2.236067977499789696…
𝜋 = 3.141592653589…
Pi is a famous irrational number. People have
calculated Pi to over a quadrillion decimal places
and still there is no pattern. The first few digits look
like this:
3.1415926535897932384626433832795…
Both rational and irrational numbers show up on
the number line. This is why all “REAL” numbers
include rational and irrational numbers.
